Hillary Clinton wished her Twitter followers a merry Christmas with a holiday greeting that included a decades-old image of her family’s time in the White House…and Republicans weren’t too happy about it.
In a tweet, the former secretary of State and first lady shared an image of herself, former President Clinton and their daughter Chelsea Clinton enjoying Christmas in the White House.
It’s unclear when the photo was taken, as in could have been taken at any time between January 1993 and January 2001 – the Clintons’ years in the White House. The photo shows the couple’s daughter Chelsea Clinton from behind, making it impossible to try to narrow down the year based on Chelsea’s apparent age in the photo.
“Merry Christmas to everyone celebrating today!” Hillary Clinton, who was the Democratic Party’s 2016 nominee for president, wrote on Twitter.

Fox News’s Sean Hannity seemed pretty annoyed by the photo. In an unsigned editorial on Hannity.com [3], the writer is convinced that Hillary is indicating that she’d rather be in the White House than not.
“The picture sparks new speculation of Clinton mounting another bid for the White House in the coming months.”
In fact, whether or not Hillary Clinton intends to make another bid for the White House is far from clear. As recently as October, she went on the record as saying that she would like to be president, but that she is not at all interested in another grueling campaign. She also added that she hopes she laid the groundwork for another Democrat beating Trump in 2020.
Other conservatives lashed out on Twitter:
Aaaaaaaaaawe, she can't help it, she has:
Alzheimer's
and
Bone Spurs
and
She has fallen
and
She can't get up!#MerryChristmas [4] #whitehousechristmas [5] #MAGA [6] https://t.co/fpedpzOVUG [7]— Jenni Porterfield (@JenniPxox) December 26, 2018 [8]

Shocking that you are still able to communicate with the outside world. I will celebrate when you are in prison. Justice reform will never apply for treason.
